You could use chroot to your home directory. You need to change your config to reflect the change.

Unfortunately, I am not an administrator of the system. I was only hoping to insure the integrity of my home dir.

I am not an administrator of this system. I have built and installed AIDE in my home directory and it seems to work properly. The sysadmin has set permissions on /home to 0751. This allows users to enter /home, but not list the contents of the directory (an ineffective security measure, in my opinion). For demonstration purposes, consider this overly simple aide.conf: database_out=file:aide.db.new /home/kccricket R Given this setup, running aide -i will output: open_dir():Permission denied: /home AIDE, version 0.15.1 ### AIDE database at aide.db.new initialized. The resulting AIDE database will be empty. If I run the same command with -V255 (highest verbosity), I can see that AIDE examines every directory in / and then attempts to do the same with /home. It chokes because it can't list the contents of /home. Is there a way to make this work, short of asking the sysadmin to change the perms on /home?
